517,244,  as  compared  with  $3,401,478,897  undtr 
Protection  from  1910-1913.  This  is  an  increase.- 
of  $2,101,038,347  in  free  imports  during  the 
first  four  years  of  the  Underwood  Democratic 
Tariff.  While  dutiable  imports  for  the  1910- 
1913  Protective  period  amounted  to  $3,148,967,- 
806,  as  against  $3,922,816,846  for  the  1914- 
1917  Free-Trade  period;  a  decrease  of  $226,- 
150,900  in  dutiable  imports  vinder  Free-Trade. 
As  the  Underwood  Democratic  Tariff  trans- 
ferred various  competitive  imports  to  the  free 
list,  which  were  Protected  by  a  duty  under  the 
Payne-AIdrich  Tariff,  the  real  test  is  shown  in 
the  following  figures  for  all  imports: 

Total  imports  during  the  four  years  under 
Free-Trade,  1914-1917,  amounted  to  $8,425,- 
334,090,  as  compared  with  $6,550,446,703  under 
Protection  from  1910-1913;  an  in_cr£a££  of 
$1,874,887,387  in  imports  from  foreign  coun- 
tries during  the  first  four  years  o'f  the  Under- 
wood Democratic  Tariff,  three  years  of  which 
were  under  war  restrictions  with  the  Under- 
wood rate  averaging  around  5  per  cent. 

Customs  receipts,  indicating  the  revenue  pro- 
ducing power  of  a  Tariff,  amounted  to  $939,- 
934,843  during  the  Free-Trade  period  from 
1914-1917,  as  compared  with  $1,278,393,584 
under  Protection  from  1910-1913;  or  a  falling 
off  of  $.^38,438,741  in  revenue  from  imports  for 
the    Underwood   period,   1914-1917. 

Our  export  trade  amounted  to  $8,464,511,477 
under  Protection  from  1910-1913,  as  compared 
with  $15,760,457,463  under  the  Free-Trade  and 
war  period  from  1914-1917;  an  increase  of 
$7,295,945,986  in  exports  for  the  1914-1917 
period  entirely  due  to  the  unprecedented  de- 
mands  of  the   Eurbpean   war. 


As  a  consequence  our  favorable  balance  of 
trade — excess  of  exports — increased  $5,411,058,- 
599  during  the  1914-1917  Free-Trade  and  war 
period. 

Our  total  foreign  commerce — imports  and  ex- 
ports— under  Protection,  1910-1913,  amounted 
to  $15,004,958,180  and  for  the  Free-Trade  and 
war  period,  1914-1917,  it  was  $24,185,791,553; 
an   increase   of  $9,180,833,373. 

Cold  imports  during  1910-1913  amounted  to 
$235,077,443,  as  compared  with  $1,709,292,741 
during  the  1914-1917  period;  an  increase  of 
$1,474,215,298  for  the  Free-Trade  and  war 
period.  While  gold  exports  for  the  1910-1913 
period  amounted  to  $276,163,838,  as  compared 
with  $640,433,450  for  the  1914-1917  period;  an 
increase  of  $364,269,612  for  the  Free-Trade 
and  war  period. 

The  condition  of  our  Federal  Treasury  as 
shown  in  ordinary  receipts  and  disbursements 
of  the  Government  (not  including  the  Panama 
Canal  and  the  Postal  Service)  were  as  fol- 
lows: 

Total  ordinary  receipts  during  the  1910-1913 
Protection  period  amounted  to  $2,792,773,785, 
as  compared  with  $3,334,824,776  "during  the 
1914-1917  Free-Trade  and  war  period;  an  in- 
crease of  $542,050,991  in  receipts  during  the 
Democratic  1914-1917  period  by  reason  of  the 
so-called  "war  taxes,"  income  and  other  direct 
taxes. 

Total  ordinary  expenditures  during  the 
1910-1913  Protection  period  amounted  to  $2,- 
651,173,058,  as  compared  with  $3,197,782,305 
during  the  1914-1917  Democratic  period;  an 
increase  of  $546,609,307  in  expenses  for  run- 
ning the  Government  by  the  Democrats  before 
the  United   States   got   into   the   European   war. 

The  complete  four-year  record  of  what 
Free-Trade  and  war  is  doing  and  what  Pro- 
tection has  done  is  shown  in  the  following

ORIENTAL     COMPETITION. 


Analysis  of  our  trade  relations  with  Japan 
and  other  Asiatic  countries,  under  Protection 
and  Free-Trade,  1910-1917. 


Japan,  China,  and  the  British  East  Indies 
arc  the  principal  countries  of  Asia  trailing  with 
the  United  States.  Wages  paid  farm  and  fac- 
tory lal^or  \n  those  countries  are  from  one-sixth 
to  one-twclflh  of  the  wages  paid  to  correspond- 
ing labor  employed  on  the  farms  and  in  the 
factories  of  the  United  States.  Raw  material 
is  cheaper  and  the  cost  of  living  is  lower  than 
ill  .he  United  States.  Those  countries  have 
not  only  Protective  Tariffs  but  since  the  Euro- 
pean war  opened  they  have,  in  some  instances, 
increased  their  Tariffs;  while  on  the  other  hand 
the  Tariff  on  all  imports  coming  into  the 
United  States,  notwithstanding  high  ocean 
freight  rates  and  embargoes,  during  the  nine 
months  ending  ]March  31,  1918,  was  6.21  per 
cent.  Thus,  enormously  high  ocean  freight 
rates  and  embargoes  on  imports  during  the 
war  are  saving  us  from  the  full  force  of  this 
low  Tariff  competition.  \\'ith  the  low  oriental 
labor  cost  and  oriental  Protective  Tariffs  in 
force,  a  return  of  normal  ocean  freight  rates 
and  the  cessation  of  embargoes  on  imports  the 
United  States  can  expect  still  greater  competi- 
tion from  these  Oriental  countries  than  it  is 
experiencing  now  under  the  present  Democratic 
Free-Trade    Tariff. 

TRADE  WITH  ASIA. 

Our  trade  relations  with  the  principal  coun- 
tries of  Asia  during  the  four  fiscal  years  1914 
to  1917.  inclusive,  under  the  Democratic  Free- 
Trade  Tariff  as  compared  with  the  four  fiscal 
years  1910  to  1913,  inclusive,  under  the  Payne- 
Aldrich  Protective  Tariff,  according  to  figures 
of  the  U.  S.  Department  of  Commerce,  was  as 
follows: 

Imports  from  Japan,  China,  and  British  East 
Indies  during  the  1910-1913  Protection  period 
amounted  to  $792,804,982,  as  compared  with 
$1,413,224,100  during  the  1914-1917  Free-Trade 


period;  an  increase  of  $620,419,118  in  imports 
from  those  countries  during  the  first  four  fiscal 
years  of   the   Underwood  Free-Trade   Tariff. 

Our  exports  to  Japan,  China,  and  British 
P^ast  Indies  during  the  Protection  period  of 
1910-1913  amounted  to  $306,536,431,  as  com- 
pared with  $494,598,707  during  the  Free-Trade 
period  of  1914-1917;  an  increase  of  $188,062,- 
286  in  our  exports  to  those  covmtries  during 
the  first  four  fiscal  years  of  the  Underwood 
Free-Trade   Tariff. 

The  trade  balance  against  the  United  States 
(excess  of  imports)  for  these  periods  was  as 
follows — during  the  1910-1913  Protection  period 
it  amounted  to  $486,268,561,  as  compared  with 
$918,625,393  during  the  1914-1917  Free-Trade 
period;  an  increase  of  $432,356,832,  or  nearly 
100  per  cent,  in  a  trade  balance  in  favor  of 
Japan,  China,  and  the  British  East  Indies  dur- 
ing the  first  four  years  of  tlie  Underwood 
Free-Trade  Tariff.  In  other  words,  while  we 
are  buying  more  than  we  are  selling  to  them, 
our  payments  for  the  balance  to  Japan,  China, 
and  the  British  East  Indies  have  nearly  doubled 
during   the   Free-Trade   period. 

Our  total  commerce  (imports  and  exports) 
with  Japan,  China,  and  the  British  East  Indies 
during  the  Protection  period  of  1910-1913 
amounted  to  $1,099,341,403,  as  compared  with 
$1,907,822,807  during  the  Free-Trade  period 
of  1914-1917;  an  increase  of  $808,481,404  in  our 
merchandise  commerce  with  Japan,  China,  and 
the  British  East  Indies  during  the  first  four 
years  of  the  Underwood  Free-Trade  Tariff. 
Of  this  increase  620  millions  of  dollars  was  in 
imports  and  188  millions  of  dollars  was  in  ex- 
ports; these  figures  indicate  the  increasing 
competition  the  United  States  is  subject  to 
under  a  Free-Trade  Tariff.  Imports  of  mer- 
cliandise  into  the  United  States  from  Asiatic 
countries  during  the  eight  years  ended  June  30, 
1910-1917,  inclusive,  four  years  under  Pro- 
tection and  four  years  under  Free-Trade,  with 
the  effect  of  the  latter  notwithstanding  pre- 
vailing war  restrictions,  are  shown  in  the  fol- 
lowing table:

Turkey  and  Russia  are  the  principal  coun- 
tries in  "all  other  Asia"  in  the  above  table. 
As  these  two  countries  are  in  the  war  zone, 
imports  from  them  have  been  about  equal  to 
normal  imports  during  the  Protection  period. 


JAPAN  CHIEF  COMPETITOR. 

Japan  ranks  to-day  as  the  principal  manufac- 
turing country  of  Asia.  Small  in  area,  popula- 
tion and  resources  as  compared  with  the 
United    States,    but,    unlike   the   United   States,

ORIENTAL  COMPETITION. 


155 


Japan  is  stimulating  her  industrial  life  with 
a  Protective  Tariff  and  fortifying  herself  in 
every  way  with  the  future  in  view.  She  is 
to-day  in  the  industrial  and  economic  spotlight 
of   the    nations   of   the   world. 

In  indicating  the  industrial  development  of 
Japan  our  commercial  attache  stationed  at 
Tokio  recently  transmitted  a  report  on  the 
export  trade  of  Japan  for  the  calendar  years 
1913  and  1917.  The  figures  are  not  only 
interesting  but  significant.  For  instance,  Ja- 
pan's total  export  trade  in  1917  increased  153 
per  cent,  over  the  year  1913.  Of  Japan's  total 
exports  in  1917,  which  amounted  to  $799,- 
OOS.noo,     83     per     cent,     or     $654,895,000     was 


manufactured  products,  11  per  cent,  was  foods, 
beverages,  and  tobacco,  5  per  cent,  was  raw 
materials,   the  balance  miscellaneous  items. 

As  83  per  cent  of  Japan's  exports  are  man- 
ufactured products,  it  is  the  class  that  repre- 
sents finished  or  wholly  manufactured  products 
that  has  increased  and  shows  what  her  factories 
are  doing.  Thus,  Japan's  exports  of  finished 
manufactures  amounted  to  $92,180,000  in  1913, 
as  compared  with  $293,195,000  in  1917;  an 
increase   of   318   per  cent. 

Complete  statistics  reported  by  our  commer- 
cial attache  at  Tokio  giving  the  exports  from 
Japan  for  the  calendar  years  1913  and  1917 
are   as    follows:

The  above  figures  indicate  the  character  of 
Japan's  exports  which  are  going  to  all  coun- 
tries of  the  world.  Japan's  increased  export 
trade  is  reflected  in  our  increased  imports  from 
that  country.  Therefore,  let  us  now  look  at 
the  United  States  and  see  what  Protection  has 
done  and  what  Free-Trade  is  doing  to  the 
United    States  in   its  trade   with    Japan. 

While  increasing  our  commerce  with  Japan 
the  trade  balance  against  us  was  reduced  under 
the  policy  of  Protection  during  the  fiscal  years 
1910-1913,  inclusive.  On  the  other  hand,  dur- 
ing   the    Free-Trade     period    of    1914-1917,    in- 


clusive, our  commerce  continued  to  in- 
crease while  the  trade  balance  against  us  was 
not  reduced.  Thus,  during  the  Payne-Aldrich 
Protection  period  the  trade  balance  in  favor  of 
Japan  was  reduced  from  $44,439,000  in  1910 
to  $33,891,000  in  1913;  while  under  the  Free- 
Trade  period  the  trade  balance  in  favor  of 
Japan  increased  from  $56,150,000  in  1914  to 
$77,655,000   in    1917. 

The  following  statistics  of  the  U.  S.  Depart- 
ment of  Commerce  shows  our  complete  mer- 
chandise commerce  with  Japan  during  the  eight 
years  ended  June  30,   1910  to  1917:

ORIENTAL  COMPETITION. 


Our  exports  of  gold  to  Japan  during  the 
914-1917  Free-Trade  period  amounted  to  $111,- 
32,.Sf)l,  as  compared  with  $34,023,879  during 
he  1910-1913  Protection  period;  wliile  iin- 
jorts  of  gold  from  Japan  during  tho  1911- 
1917  period  was  $27,530,551,  as  compared  with 
fl0,242,928   during  the   1910-1913   period. 

Imports  of  merchandise  from  Japan  increased 
fro-n  $91,033,000  in  1913  to  $208,127,000  in 
1G17.  The  year  ended  June  30.  1913,  was  the 
last  year  of  the  Paync-Aldrich  Protective 
Tariff  and  the  year  ended  June  30,  1917,  was 
under  the  Underwood  Free-Trade  Tariff  with 
trade  restrictions  prevailing  and  acting  as  war- 
Protection.  Notwithstanding  these  war  condi- 
tions Japan  is  getting  into  the  United  States 
markets  by  reason  of  the  Underwood  Free- 
Trade  Tariff. 

This  is  better  illustrated  by  examining  tlie 
imports  from  Japan  for  1913  and  1917.  For 
instance,  imports  of  brushes  from  Japan  in- 
creased from  $604,490  in  1913  to  $1,800,300  in

The  above  list  represents  competitive  imports

some  large  increases,  but,  to  get  a  more  com- 
prehensive idea  of  Japan's  invasion  and  foot- 
hold in  the  United  States  markets  a  glance 
at  the  following  table  of  imports  into  the 
United  States  from  that  country  during  the 
eight  years  ended  June  30.  1910  to  1917,  four 
years  under  the  Payne-Aldrich  Protective  Tariff 
and  four  years  under  the  Underwood  Free- 
Trade  Tariff,  is  instructive,  interesting,  and 
shows  conclusively  the  necessity  of  a  return  to 
a  Protective  Tariff  for  the  United  States  to 
check  Oriental  invasion  of  our  domestic  mar- 
ket from   that  quarter  of  the  world.
